Getting TableView to strech with Dialog

[db]

I'm creating a simple Dialog which contains a TableView. What I'm having problems with is:
1) getting the TavleView to expand to the size of the model and there by expand the size of the Dialog and
2) getting the TableView to strech as the Dialog box is enlarged.

I used Designer to create the object. I created a Dialog without buttons. Placed a vertical layout in it and place a tableview within the vertical layout. Nothing else.

I use the following code to display it but I can't get the desired effects. I tried the setSizeConstraint (I found in another example) but it just shrinks the TableView. The resize seems to have no affect.

Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks

#include <QDialog>
#include <QTableView>
 
#include "ui_View.h"
 
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
class CViewInputs : public QDialog, public Ui::CView
{
      Q_OBJECT
 
   public:
      // CViewInputs : class constructor method
      CViewInputs(QWidget *parent = 0, CHostIFTools * tools=0);
 
      // ~CViewInputs : class destrcutor method
      ~CViewInputs();
 
   private slots:
 
   protected:
};
 
 
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
CViewInputs::CViewInputs(QWidget *parent)
   : QDialog(parent)
{
   // create form
   setupUi(this);
 
   // setup so that form is removed when closed
   setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose);
 
//   vboxLayout->setSizeConstraint(QLayout::SetFixedSize);
 
   // setup model
   model.setColumnCount(6);
   model.setRowCount(4);
 
//   tableView->resize(500,300);
 
   // add data to model
   item = new QStandardItem( "Packet Counter");
   model.setItem(0,0,item);
   item = new QStandardItem( QString::number(200) );
   model.setItem(0,1,item);
   item = new QStandardItem( "Packets Missed");
   model.setItem(0,2,item);
   item = new QStandardItem( QString::number(10) );
   model.setItem(0,3,item);
 
   // assign model to view
   tableView->setModel( &model );
 
}

You need to define a layout.
Look at this:

Actually I have defined a layout. As I said, with the designer I placed a vertical layout object on the dialog and then inserted the table view into the layout. Is there a command where I assign the layout to the dialog??

Right mouse button click on the dialog.
From the context menu choose grid layout.

Good luck!

Grid layout has no differnet affect than vertical layout.
